You look like you just received a light tap on the temple from Mjölner. Only the worthy could withstand such a blow!

Quoted from EaglePin:Ditto...
...And ditto again. Got mine today (born on date 10/6) and played a bit tonight. Noticed my skill shot and Hawkeye shots weren’t registering. Switch diagnostics menu showed a square lit around the inner loop opto switch when there shouldn’t be one (next to the right ramp exit opto in the pic).
I took off a wireform to take pics. The receiver under the plastic next to the gauntlet ramp doesn’t have a red light on. The emitter does show light coming from it though. The same part for the gauntlet ramp exit does have a red light on. So it looks like the receiver isn’t working for some reason.
Bummer, but in looking at the way it’s wired under the playfield my fingers are crossed that it’s just a plug and play solution. It looks like they have connectors so maybe no soldering required.

Somebody can correct me if I’m getting this wrong, but I’m pretty sure that’s how Optos work. There is an Emitter, and a Receiver.
Your Emitter shoots a beam of light to the receiver which is dark. When the beam is interrupted the switch registers.
I think your screen is showing the switch registering?
If you put the machine in switch test and simply pass your finger or a ball between the optos, does it make an audible sound and display Switch 58?
Hope this helps.
Quoted from EaglePin:Switch number is 59 I think. Thanks but yeah I checked all that, including covering it with my finger and slowly rolling a ball past it. In the picture I posted of the switch test the right ramp exit switch is also on the same screen. So the inner loop switch should show up on that diagnostic screen the same way as the right ramp exit switch but instead it's showing different it's not receiving a beam.
The main issue seems to be indicated by the red led on the opto receiver board not being lit like it is for the identical parts on other optos in the game, such as the gauntlet ramp exit opto. You're correct that there isn't a beam shooting out of the receiver, but on the board itself is a small red led. That led being out seems to signal the receiver board isn't working for some reason.
I checked under the playfield also. They have really nice tags on the wiring now that show which connectors are for the inner loop optos. I pushed on the connectors and wiggled the wires a bit and still no led on the receiver board. This morning I pushed on and wiggled CN12 on node board 9 where the optos connect and still nothing.
It could just be slightly misaligned? There is no lit LED on my receiver either. Only the Emitter.
